LOD-People: zoom summary (and follow-up)

[Gabriel Bodard]

Dear all,

A small group of us had a useful kick-off call this afternoon. The agenda and notes are in this googledoc, but in summary, we decided on two working groups for this two week asynchronous sprint, and a couple of priorities for follow-up activity early next year.

1. Collating and describing existing digital person-data projects and datasets (as in this preliminary list), as a preparation for more intensive work on existing standards later. Tom Gheldof will start a new thread proposing a start to organise this work shortly.
2. Start gathering examples of linked person data in the Github repo, for later analysis and experimentation. Keep in mind licenses, and where possible invite people to contribute their own data. Jun Ogawa will kick off a new thread about this shortly.

We will report back on these activities via the list and the Wiki. In the new year, we will take this work forward, for examples perhaps starting with:

3. Collate and describe (a) formats and standards used by the datasets in (1) above, and (b) look and the formally defined LOD People formats (SNAP, IFIP, Factoid, Wikidata, CRM) with a view to proposing best practices for interoperability.
4. Think about the tool and software needs of interoperability work in LOD for historical people, including annotation tools, registries, etc.
   

In the meantime we propose another live zoom call to discuss our progress so far at the same time next Monday, 14:00 GMT. We will use the same Zoom link as today. If you did not already sign up for it, please do so at:

(If you have already signed up, you will receive a reminder of the zoom link next week.)

Thanks, and all best,

Gabby
